Class-8

Objective-Assembly of foldscope

Even though our 8th standard students are using the foldscopes, they did not have any first hand experience of assembly  of foldscope and they wanted the demonstration of assembly of foldscope. Hence conducted the workshop on assembly of foldscope to give them hands on experience.

Observation-Infected  leaf  in a plant found in school premises.

When we observed a infected leaf under the foldscope we were surprised to see the microscopic organism which was moving. We could also observe the excreta of the organism.The organism under the foldscope was observed by the class students , students who were in office ,teachers in staffroom ,nursery children and the principal.The video of the moving organism was also captured.

Outcome- The infected plants were immediately chopped off from the bottom so that it won’t pose any threat to students of the school and decided to replace it with different species of plants.
